Configuring Dell Connections License Manager URL
Perform this task before importing the Server (Out-of-band) monitoring feature, as Dell servers are discovered only after the Dell
Connections License Server is configured.

If you have already imported the Server (Out-of-band) monitoring feature, the Dell servers are discovered only in
the next discovery cycle and an alert is generated in the Feature Management Dashboard prompting you to configure
the Dell Connections License Manager URL. For more information, see Feature Management Alerts.
NOTE: If the management server has been restarted, the discovered Dell servers will appear only after the next
discovery cycle.
